Four consecutive race female jockey winners

A female jockey isn't anything new, but a foursome of Thistledown women turned in a unique performance on July 17. Kirsten won the 11th race with Wegotta. The next three finishers were all ridden by women as well, with Patricia Trimble aboard Tiny Facts, Anne Sanguinetti riding Numerically and Jane Magrell finishing fourth with Lady Spirit.

"It was pretty neat," Kirsten said with a grin. "Anne Sanguinetti and Jane Magrell are the ones I watch and emulate. They've given me pointers here and there.

I guess to be truly politically correct, we should just recognize they are jockeys.

Female or male, not important. Jockeys.

It happened in July, but my cursory glances at this place didn't catch a mention.

I thought it merited some note, just in case it had been overlooked.
